Enveloped in mist, nestled within dense pine forests, and outlined with the snowy peaks of the mighty Himalayas, Shimla is definitely the Queen of Hills and serves as a perfect vacation retreat for family, friends, and honeymooners. No matter the age, the toy train ride in Shimla will make the child in you jump with joy as it plays hide and seek with the tunnels and chugs slowly up the mountains. Be prepared for a pleasant colonial hangover by walking through the British-era buildings that will take you back to the old world. Satisfy the adventure junkie in you as you indulge in several adventure activities like skiing, sledding, trekking, or hiking through the trails of the Himalayan Nature Park in Kufri. Don’t forget to send postcards to your loved ones from the 133-year-old Swiss-style post office in Shimla
